She stayed in L.A. and worked in the LA dance scene for a little over 3 years. About three years ago she moved to Boulder to study at the Naropa Institute. Dance for Caroline is not just about the basics of steps. Rather, she views dance as a way in which to communicate and understand the world. Caroline's style of teaching gives great value to the foundation of technique and proper placement however she hopes to evoke in her students a connection to the deeper meanings found within movement..
